]]> Comment on Making connections… by Shirley http://shirleyfung.wordpress.com/2007/09/13/making-connections/#comment-341 Sun, 30 Jan 2011 21:07:15 +0000 http://shirleyfung.wordpress.com/2007/09/13/making-connections/#comment-341 Hey Tse-Sung Wu, thanks for your comment! I hope Stonetown is treating you well. I still remember the street market well with the wonderful food. Your remark is interesting. I think that new technology has changed the way we communicate, and I would be curious how that may affect us as a society.

They’re small, everyone understands and knows each other as well as their contexts.  

Will there be a time in which social media will be as natural as normal personas? I wonder– currently online personas are constructed, arguably- much more so than in-person ones.

I’ve found your blog via Bing and I’m really glad about the information you provide in your posts. Btw your blogs layout is really broken on the Kmelon browser. Would be really great if you could fix that. Anyhow keep up the good work!

I found your great blog while searching for info on Tanzania. Keep up the amazing work…

You might want to know that the best way to get from Heathrow to Central London is called Heathrow Connect. It costs $20 less each way, and only takes 10 mins longer! I’d thought I share that with you :-)

Thanks!

Adam
